Issue #11989 has been updated by Keiran S.
I've hit this issue as well, and it reminds me of when SMF arrived in Solaris
10 (s/arrived/was shoehorned in/).
As I am likely to be on 2.7 for a bit longer, the following logic works for me
as well.
I had to slightly adjust the service name from Eric's example above.
#
# RHEL 6
#
service { vmware-tools-services :
ensure => running,
hasstatus => true,
hasrestart => true,
start => '/sbin/initctl start vmware-tools-services',
stop => '/sbin/initctl stop vmware-tools-services',
status => '/sbin/initctl status vmware-tools-services | grep
"/running" 1>/dev/null 2>&1',
}
Testing..
[root@keiran-testing ~]# /sbin/initctl stop vmware-tools-services
vmware-tools-services stop/waiting
[root@keiran-testing ~]# /sbin/initctl status vmware-tools-services
vmware-tools-services stop/waiting
[root@keiran-testing ~]# puppet apply /tmp/RHEL_ESX_Upstart.pp
notice: /Stage[main]//Service[vmware-tools-services]/ensure: ensure changed
'stopped' to 'running'
notice: Finished catalog run in 0.26 seconds
[root@keiran-testing ~]# /sbin/initctl status vmware-tools-services
vmware-tools-services start/running
[root@keiran-testing ~]#
Hopefully Redhat will standardise their service interface a little so that we
dont have to do the chkconfig/upstart switcharoo all the time.
Another bug for me to keep an eye on.

Bug #11989: upstart service operating system confine should include redhat and
centos
https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/11989#change-75151
Author: Nathan Huff
Status: Code Insufficient
Priority: Normal
Assignee:
Category: service
Target version: 3.x
Affected Puppet version: 2.7.9
Keywords: upstart simplefix
Branch: https://github.com/puppetlabs/puppet/pull/813
RedHat EL 6 and Centos 6 both use upstart for init. The upstart service type
should be able to be used on those systems as well.
I have done some very minor testing to make sure it at least works to ensure
services are running and stopped.
